psosidene Cleveland. replying to an invisation
sent him when it was expected Cardinal Gibbo
would be able to attend, wrote:
'The thoughtfulness which prompted this invi
tation is gratefully appreciated, and / regret
that my public duties here will prevent its
ceptance should be glad to join the contem
plated expression Of respect to be rendered to
the istinguished head of the Catholic Church in
the United States whose personal acquaint-
ance very much enjoy, and who
is so worthily entitled to the esteem
of all his fellow citizens. | thank you for the
admirable letter which accompanied my invita-
| tion, In which you announces as one of the doc
| trnes of your club, That good and exemplary
| Catholic must eX necessitate rel, be a good and
exemplary citizen, and that The teachings
| Of both human and divine law, thus merging in
| the word, duty, form the only union of
| church and state that civil ard religious gov
| ernment can recognize I know you will per-
nit me, Protestant, to supplement this
| noble sentiment by the expression of my convic-
! tion that the same influence and result follow a
| sincere and consistent devotion to the
| teachings of every religious creed
| which is based upon divine sanction.
| A wholesome religious faith thus inures to the
perpetuity, the safety and prosperity Of our Re-
public by exacting the due observance of civil
1 law, the preservation of public order, and q
proper regard for the rights of ALL and thus are
| its adherents better fitted for good citizenship
and confirmed in sure aud steadfast patriotism.
| 1t seems to me, too, that the conception of duty
to the state, which is derived from religious pre-
| cept. involves a of personal responsibility
which is Of the greatest value in the operation
| of the government by the people. 1t will be a
fortunate day for our country when every citizen
feels that he has an ever present duty to perform
| to the state which he cannot escape from or
| neglect without being false to his religious as
/ we'll as to his civil allegiance.
"Wishing for your club success in its efforts

Facilities Extended for Return of Expelled
Members of Religious Orders.
BERLIN, Feb. 8.-Dr. Won Gossler, Prussiar
Minister of Ecclesiastical Affairs. has sent cir
culars to officials in the Prussian provinces in
structing them to offer facilities for return of
religious orders The edicts forbidding admis
sion of members of such bodies without the
consent of the Minister had been rescnded, and
orders issued for the free admission and transfer
of such members, excepting minors who will be
required to have the written consent of their
guardians. The government reserves the right
Of limiting the number of admissions.
1t is stated at Breslau that Monsnger Kopp,
Catholic Bishop of Fulda. who meditated be-
tween Prussia and the Vatican in the negotia-
tions for the revision Of the May laws, has beer
deputed by the Pope to make q statement de-
claring the Pope's intentions in advising the
Catholic electors to support the government on
the septennate BILL and explaining the papal in
terests from Catholic stand point in having the
Catholic electors assist in securing the success
of Prince Bismarck's bill in the Reichstag. The
occasion for making this important statement
will be the introduction in the upper house of
the Prussian Diet of the new ecclesiastical bill.
It is also announced here that the Pope desir-
to meet Prussia's views, even in matters of ec-
clesiastical discipline and appointment, will
favor the nomination of Doctor Kopp to the
bishopric of Breslau.
